The Devout: Depeche Mode Tribute

18 Apr 2026 - 20 Feb 2027

The Devout is a new Depeche Mode Tribute Act born from the infamous Speak and Spell - Europe’s leading DM Tribute that played Glastonbury and festivals across the continent - updated and driven forward by the same core member and productions. ‘The Devout’ play DM’s greatest hits with startling accuracy and production. Now they bring the sellout ‘Violator 30th Anniversary’ show, recreating the triple platinum LP, followed by a best hits set. The Devout will be performing hit after hit from ‘Personal Jesus’ and ‘Enjoy the Silence’ to ‘Stripped’ and ‘Just Can’t Get Enough’... There’s no doubt that this is a group of musicians whose experience, drive, passion and love for Depeche Mode shines through as they relish in recreating a live experience worthy of the boys from Basildon. The aim of The Devout is simple. To put on a show that transports the senses of the audience back to the sacred glory days of Depeche Mode.

The Stone Roses played a pivotal role in the history of the UK’s indie music scene.

The Completes, as they are affectionately referenced to by their fans, play to acclaim both from fans themselves, the press, and even original Stone Roses band members. Former Stone Roses bass player Mani, has not only just appeared as a warm up DJ for the band on the odd occasion but has also played onstage with them as their guest bassist playing She Bangs The Drums on more than a few times when he was touring about with the band.
